This Brush Up is sponsored by Cayman Chemical. Learn more about chemical inhibitors of histone modification. Histone modification affects how tightly DNA wraps around histone proteins, yielding ...

In a recent study published in the journal Science Advances, a group of researchers investigated the role of histone modifications in human aging by developing and evaluating histone-specific age ...

Epigenetics, the study of changes in gene function that do not involve alterations to the DNA sequence, plays a pivotal role in understanding the complex interplay between genetics and the environment ...

Multicellular organisms (animals, plants, humans) all have the ability to methylate the cytosine base in their DNA. This ...

Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the most common primary liver cancer and a leading cause of cancer-related deaths worldwide. While environmental and genetic factors contribute to HCC, increasing ...

In vitro findings reveal Telomir-1’s dual action: targeting DNA methylation switches and cutting into the Wnt “fuel line” that drives cancer growth. MIAMI, FLORIDA / ACCESS Newswire / August 28, 2025 ...

Cancer and aging are driven in part by the silencing of protective genes that regulate cell growth, repair, and survival. When these genes are inactive, cells lose critical defenses, enabling tumors ...

Traditional bisulfite sequencing damages DNA, while enzyme-based alternatives are inconsistent. A novel methylation analysis ...
